Thread all abt ROLEX - Part 2

[Celibrium]

Depends on who you buy from. If AD then hard to get discount.

Bro, of course referring to AD. 5% discount easily available for less popular models like datejust. Not hard at all.

Been out of touch for a bit. Anyone knows what’s a fair value now for a zenith Daytona white dial , 16520 L series watch only?

Hello, a newbie here, I have bought a Rolex yatchmaster last year but I recently found out there is a hairline scratch that appeared out of nowhere on the dial. Should I go to the Rolex service centre to repair it or keep the scratch as I am not sure if servicing it would cause my watch to drop in value.

 

[Damienic]

Not true. Unwanted models like certain datejusts can still very much get 5% off.

If you are talking about stainless steel Datejust, no. No discount. Datejust with discount only available for the half gold models.

Now if you want to buy a SS Datejust 41mm blue, you need to be put on approval to buy.

Forget about it. It’s only a hairline scratch, for goodness sake

Depends on how you look at it. If you compare the price at AD to list price online, some models are discounted. However, the price listed in the store already reflects the discount. It is not listed as 1 price in store and after discount, you pay a lower price.

Not sure if you are confused. Price listed on Rolex Official Website is the same retail price you're going to see on the watch in ADs. The price listed in the store does NOT reflect any discount. Discount only available on unpopular models.

But I went to several Rolex stores and they said no discount at all for all models. I noticed that some watches were priced cheaper than online. Year 2020 already. Maybe certain AD give discount. Can share the AD name or which year was the discount given? Maybe can bargain like night market at Rolex. $30K? no no no $28K. $29K best offer. Take it or leave it. Then can pretend to walk out see whether salesman chase after you.

out of goodwill, some AD will give a little bit of discount on certain dj models for regulars or regulars recommended customers.

no fixed rule.

if you go to the rolex website (singapore)
there will be a price
then click on the small "Letter I in the cricle" a new pop up will appear

it says:
"
ROLEX PRICING POLICIES
All prices are Rolex's suggested retail price inclusive of V.A.T.

The prices of gem-set models are dependent on market fluctuations and therefore subject to variations.
Rolex reserves the right to modify the prices and models on this website at any time.
"


which means, AD can choose to accept or ignore the "suggestion"

like another commonly used term:
RRP = recommended retail price
I can always choose to not follow their recommendation



If government "recomend" to wear mask, do you think everyone so guai wear mask?


Conclusion:
DJ can discount one la.....
But of cos not you walk in 1 min, they offer you 15%



you must show talk talk
show that you are about to pull out credit card
but then still got that last final hurdle - then AD will chut discount to close the deal la.

Must go burn and reforge it.. hairline scratch not good..

What RSC will do is simply polish off the scratch..

personally i rather have a scratched unpolished watch than a scratch free but highly polished watch subject to the scratch not being too deep for my comfort..

no right or wrong, see your own comfort level.

Edit: sorry, u mentioned dial. But is same la, own comfort level... i know it can be hard to unsee things and if it’s under warranty, no loss to seek RSC advice

if under warranty, go seek RSC help on it. usually they will replace free since there's no way you as a end user can create a scratch on the dial.

Yes i read properly and thats my recommendation.

Thanks for everyone's replies I just realised that the warranty is over by 2 months -.- ...think may keep it as it is then.

Edit: not hairline but it's something like scratches on the dial.

No problem.

But how to forged dial? Can teach? I is don't know

If Rolex didn’t change the size to 41mm maybe their gamble would have paid off.
Now Kena pwned. All the outgoing 6 digits 40mm subs value will drop. What discontinued BS haha.
Now these grey market sellers can only hope and pray the new 41mm is so scarce and in demand that huge price premiums would turn off potential buyers and divert them to consider the 40mm.
That said prices wouldn’t collapse but good to bring it down.
Well done rolex.

What i don't understand is new launch, old models sell at sky high price cos discontinued (******** crap), and new launch models sold at sky high price too cos scarcity....

think the grey dealers all pakat set high price one...
